Abstract
Pre-pandemic disparities placed Latinos at risk for COVID-19. This report describes the associations between increased viral exposure through social contact and material hardship and the uneven distribution of COVID-19 morbidity among Latino older adults using data from the recently released supplement to the National Social Life, Heath, and Aging Project (NSHAP) (N = 2672), a population-based panel study of adults born 1920–1965. Logistic regression revealed that material hardship and reliance on outside help were significantly correlated with COVID-19 infection, which may partially explain the disproportionate burden Latinos experience during the pandemic.
